An issue introduced by macOS 14.4, which causes Java process to terminate unexpectedly, is affecting all Java versions from Java 8 to the early access builds of JDK 22
If this affects so many versions of Java and nobody notices, is anyone even using Java on macOS?
Plenty of people develop for java on macs. The issue is that per the article this behavior was not present in the early access macOS builds, which means something changed between beta and release.
And there's a known issue with an interaction between minecraft, Java, and the video drivers that crashes out and it can be traced back all the way to here: https://github.com/glfw/glfw/issues/1997
It's not terminating directly. I've seen a few IDE crashes this week, less than one per day, but since there's no log there's no easy way to determine it's related to a macOS change.
Reading the comments from David Wartell in that thread is enough internet for me today. This guy is CTO of some company and is just harassing the thread for a fix ETA without understanding the problem at all.
You should I had some Rider and IntelliJ crashes. The crash does not happen often tough, but if your in the middle of writing code it can get you out of the flow.
